Itinerary

Pululahua Volcano

We will begin the day with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Quito, heading immediately north to ascend to the panoramic viewpoint of the Pululahua Volcano. Once there, you will marvel at the world's only inhabited and cultivated volcanic crater, offering a spectacular landscape for photography and hiking.

Mitad del Mundo

Here, we will visit the imposing Equatorial Monument (Monumento Ecuatorial), a structure that celebrates the French Geodesic Mission, which determined the location of the Equator Line in 1736. You will have time to ascend the monument to enjoy a 360-degree view, and explore the handicraft shops, cultural exhibits, and local restaurants.

Inti Ñan Museum

Our final stop is the Inti Ñan Solar Museum. Prepare for a captivating interactive experience where an expert guide will show you scientific experiments that only work at Latitude Zero, including the famous egg-balancing trick. You will also learn about the ancestral cultures of Ecuador—a perfect final note before returning to your hotel in Quito.
